Hi Daniel,
you can grate the cuttle bone a bit and mix the powder into her food. Not too much, just a little.
Also, remove the hard backing on the cuttlebone and just give the soft part.
Break up the soft part of the cuttlebone and leave it in her enclosure.
She might chew on it, she might not.

You can also go to a good pet store and buy:

Rep Cal phosphorous free calcium with vit D3.

Twice a week sprinkle a tiny pinch onto or mix into her food, just a small pinch.
